Guidance on TB and TB/HIV prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care in the workplace
Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) threatens displaced women and girls, as well as men and boys, in all regions of the world.

Moreover, support to community-based organisations has given communities a greater sense of ownership in addressing SGBV.
